I've heard that John Bravman will be one to keep an eye on for the job.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_C._Bravman

Well, I used to play basketball with his son around escondido village (play basketball = make a hoop with my arms as the kid was only about four years old) - so he's got that going for him.
My understanding is that he is generally well liked at Stanford, but may not have the academic gravitas that they usually look for.

Steve Chu would seem a strong candidate whom I mentioned in my survey response (Nobel Laureate, recently Secretary of Energy) - but he might be a couple of years older than they would like.
